To simplify tracking, you can combine the PST amount with the total expense. When making a purchase, record the total amount paid, including PST, and assign it to the appropriate expense category, such as repairs and maintenance.
For GST, a tax-inclusive rate must be used. When recording a purchase, enter the total amount paid, and QuickBooks will automatically calculate and separate the GST portion. You can then manually adjust the GST amount before saving the transaction.
